Supervisors’ duties
95 Supervisors’ duties
The supervisor shall carry on the business for the purpose of concluding or disposing of matters commenced but not concluded on behalf of clients of the business and, where necessary, for the purpose of disposing of, or dealing with, documents relevant to those matters, and, in the case of the business of a deceased agent, shall carry on the business until it can otherwise be dealt with according to law.
The supervisor may, on production of his instrument of appointment —
by notice in writing require the agent to whom the appointment relates, or any of his clerks, servants, or agents, or in the case of a deceased agent, his personal representative or any of the former clerks, servants, or agents of the deceased agent to produce to the supervisor any books, files, papers, or documents relating to the practice that, in the opinion of the supervisor, may be reasonably necessary for the purposes of carrying on the business; and
enter upon any premises of the agent to whom the appointment relates, or, in the case of a deceased agent, his former premises, and take possession of all books, files, papers, documents, and other things relating to the business, and that, in the opinion of the supervisor, may be relevant to or necessary for the carrying on of the business.
